”In a study of older Italian
women those who ate the most carrots and fresh fruit had a 60% lower chance of
a heart attack. Those who ate the most green vegetables and fish had a 40%
lower risk. Moderate alcohol consumption reduced the risk by 30% but heavy
drinking increased the risk by 20%.”Mario Negri

“It is difficult to
overstate the benefits garnered from fiber in regard to blood glucose control.”Life Extension

“A study that tracked 90,000 women for eight years
concluded eating carrots five times a week could lower your risk of stroke by
68%, compared to eating carrots once a month or less.” Harvard Women Nurse Study

“The key is having the proper ratio
of vitamin D to vitamin A in your body. To obtain this proper D/A ratio,
you must make a choice. (1) Either obtain the D/A ratio as Nature
and God intended, that is, the ratio the human genome evolved on,
or (2) think you know everything, intervene in a closed system,
bypass the controls in the intestine and inject active A directly into
your blood by taking vitamin A or cod liver oil. Vitamin A production is
tightly controlled in the body, the source (substrate) being carotenoids from
vegetables in your intestine. The body uses these carotenoid substrates
to make exactly the right amount of retinol for your body. That is,
it is a closed, tightly regulated, system, one designed to perfection by God
and Nature. When you take vitamin A as retinol, such as in cod liver oil,
you intervene in this closed system and bypass the controls. Proceed at
your peril. “

Doctor
John Cannell Vitamin D Council on why chronic vitamin A supplements may do harm.
IMO save the vitamin A supplements for sickness THEN they are warranted

"If you crush the root [of the wild carrot] and inhale its
scent; however you will smell the family resemblance; there is no mistaking the
aroma of a carrot."

"The outer part of [baby carrots] which is thrown away, food scientists
have learned, is much more nutritious than the inner core that remains. As with
most fruits and vegetables, the greatest concentration of nutrients is in the
skin and tissue right below it."

"Did you know that carrots are by far the richest source
of carotenoid phytonutrients, such as beta-carotene? Just one cup of carrots
contains 1158% of the RAE for beta-carotene, which, particularly if the carrots
have been lightly steamed and served with a little olive oil, our bodies may be
able to convert into varying amounts of vitamin A. As an excellent source of
carotenoids, which also function as potent antioxidants, carrots help promote
good vision, especially night vision, and combat the free radical activity
associated with an increased risk of numerous degenerative diseases, such as
cardiovascular disease and age-related macular degeneration. Carrots also
contain a newly discovered phytonutrient, called falcarinol,
which may be one reason carrots have been associated with a reduced risk of some
cancers. And remember, enjoying whole fresh carrots will provide you not only
with the benefits of these phytonutrients, but the entire complex of nutrients
whole, fresh unprocessed carrots deliver, including vitamin K, C, folate,
potassium, B6 and dietary fiber.WHF Read More ...

Raw carrots
are high in fiber (See Fiber Protocol). Cooked Carrots are the very
best way IMO to get Beta Carotene (See Beta Carotene Protocol) and all the
other 750 members of the carotenoid (See Carotene Protocol) family many of
which we require. The carrots must be
cooked because the carrot cell wall is tough and your body will only digest
about 5% or less raw carrot cells. Raw carrots do provide good fiber but to get
the nutrients you must boil the carrots for about 15 minutes over a low heat. I
let mine sit a couple hours to soften further.

"Olive Oil according to a 2012 Purdue
University study does the best job of making those [fat soluble] compounds more
bioavailable. It takes almost seven times of soybean oil, by contrast, to get
the same results. ... look for UNFILTERED extra virgin olive oil."

The conversion from carotene
to Beta carotene (ultimately all the forms of vitamin A) and all the other
carotenoids in the intestines can only take place in the presence of bile
salts. This means that fat MUST (See Fat Soluble
Nutrients Protocol) be eaten with the carrots to stimulate bile secretion. I
usually use olive oil, ground flax
or butter. Olive Oil dies the best job and should always be used at least in a
small amount if you use another oil.

Cooked carrots are a must for
me but we must realize cooked carrots, along
with most root vegetables, rate very high on the Glycemic index(See Glycemic Index Protocol).

If you add a good deal of fat to your cooked carrots you will be lowering the
glycemic index of your meal

Purple Carrots

"The anthocyanins in the purple carrots made all the
[numerous improved health markers in rats fed purple carrots] difference . If
you need more incentive to try purple carrots they are sweeter than orange
carrots."

Watch this wonderful video by Doctor Gerson's daughter
Charlotte Gerson for Cancer and MANY other health topics.

The
Beautiful truthNote this is an excellent video on the Gerson Cancer Therapy and covers the political
nature of cancer treatment, indeed most of "medicine" is highly
politically corrupt in that it disappears effective treatment; effective
treatment that makes NO MONEY for Big Medicine INC. You will soon discover this fighting cancer.
This video will probably disappear from the highly politically corrupt
google and youtube as has its predecessor covering the same material

Your Eyes will thank You

In my case I find if I do not
eat about two pounds or more of cooked carrots per week my eyes weaken. My
eyes tell me when to eat cooked carrots. I have done this for forty years. Am I
sick of cooked carrots? Yes in a way but I have learned to live with it.The number of things you can use to spice up
the bland carrots is endless and limited only by your imagination and your need
for a specific healthful food.When I fast my vision slowly
deteriorates, by the fifth or so day of the fast I can barely read. After my
fast about five to ten pounds of cooked carrots brings my
vision back to normal. This happens every time I fast and I fast at least three
times a year. Now what does this show?
